Is Verizon ever going to update - Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Perfectly good phone. Still no lollipop for it yet. Look of things. This project just fell right off the table. Like the Verizon 12.2 pro tablet.. My day with Samsung products about to come to end.. HTC was the best device I ever owned. Nexus are made way to cheap and over priced.

I'm starting to feel the same way about this note edge.... But I disagree with the nexus stuff, ever since before the nexus 6 they were very inexpensive. Back when I was strictly HTC, they sucked at releasing updates.

I am disappointed with Verizon.. other Note Edge owners on other networks have received lollipop.

Trust me do not get the lollipop.

^^^^what he said..

From what I've heard from others I don't think I want lollipop now. If this phone could be rooted and unlocked then I would consider a lollipop rom.

I've been with an android phone since day one (currently on my 7th Android phone.. plus 4 different Tablets).. and everytime Google has an update you hear folks saying Don't upgrade.. don't upgrade. I'm running Lollipop on a tablet that came with Honeycomb 3.0 and it works well.

Galaxy Note 4 Android 5.1 Lollipop update incoming in the next two weeks:

Hopefully... this will also benifit us Edge owners.

I doubt its on there list. The edge is know as a tablet in Sammy eyes. S6 and note 4 is the bread for sammy right now. Not even there s6 edge getting any attention.

Lollipop isn't bad
Worked fine on my Note 4. The complaints were from people who didn't clear cache or factory reset after the update. Other than the new camera interface and app complaints, it is a worthwhile update.

I'm so ready for an update, I'm a little disappointed on how sluggish this phone is and I still have 12 gig free space

yeah i check for updates everyday and get pissed off all over again

Just spoke with a rep from Samsung
I called again to complain to Verizon about the lack of updates to the Noted Edge. She called Samsung as if to push the blame off on them as to why the release is not available. The Rep said that it was Verizon that hasn't set a release date. She informed me that if I take my phone to a Best Buy and have someone from their Samsung experience update it for me. She said they have a tool to force the update. Is this true? has anyone done this? Or is she full of it?

I'd also like to know if this is true? If so, I'll be there later today doing it.

No Official JB Update for Verizon S3 Coming! Woah, that was close!

So Samsung offically announced the US devices getting JB and while reading the article is says it is coming to the Galaxy S3 on AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and US Cellular. I was like WHAAAAAAAAT!
Then when you scroll down to the chart, is has the Verzion S3 JB update also listed as coming soon. Man, a typo like that can give someone a heart attack.

Does it really matter? It'll look just like ICS with the same fugly touchwiz all over it. Maybe it'll scroll a little smoother. The only other important addition (google now) we can add already.
JB is such a tiny update I don't see what everyone is getting so worked up about.

What makes it important to us, is the changes Samsung made to the TouchWIZ framework in 4.1.2:
Multi-View Multitasking - The ability to run two different apps simultaneously on one screen.

Well, we don't have any 4.1.2 US variant builds yet (even leaks), so it's hard to say whether or not we will get the Multitasking built in. What is likely though, is that we will get the framework changes that support it (even if Samsung doesn't provide the actual application to do it). In that case, it will be a simple port to get it up and running.

I'm pretty sure we'll get it. There's lots of stuff in the framework that's associated with the multi-view feature such as images and XML files so it's a safe bet that it'll come to the US variants.
Regarding multi view, scott on the clean rom forum said its definitely in the framework, but its "turned off" in almost 180 something files, he said it would be painstakingly time consuming , byt someone with the time and knowledge could definitely turn it on.

WOW you have your hopes high, they still haven't released 4.1.1. and I'm using a leaked version and there are still bugs in it. I highly doubt we will see 4.1.2 before April.
LOL at some of the funny comments - I'm sure if its coming to the US, Verizon will get it too - seriously - I can't stop laughing.
Yeapppp! Still don't even have jellybean update. Lol
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
4.1.2 is unlikely. Support docs have started shipping out, and K3 is the official Verizon build #, so the K3 we're seeing around here should be what's pushed out via the OTA when it starts:

Could we keep this thread limited to talking about Verizon and Samsung bring 4.4.2 to the S3 and not arguing about different ROMs. If people want to talk about different roms then they can go to the other threads for that. Thanks!

If Sprint rolled 4.4.2 out to the S4 already then I would guess Verizon will soon too. Then say another month and Verizon could roll it out for S3 in April or May. That's just my uneducated ghess

You will probably get your tax refund back (USA) before the Note 5 gets Marshmallow.
The Note 6 may be even available for preorder before then!
In other words, don't hold your breath. That would be very bad for you!
Probably when Android 7.0 Nicotine comes out.

Might have been a mistake. Both Samsung and Verizon have said OTA. So untill that OTA I don't even expect it in the store. The Samsung website said when OTA is available it will be built into the system on update

I too want the G5. I like the whole module concept, especially the camera one that extends battery. I'm on the fence though because I'm intrigued by the S7 Edge but at the same time wondering about the next Note lineup up and hoping there's a new version of my Note Edge as this thing is still my favorite phone to date. It really sucks Samsung dragging their feet on marshmallow and is the big reason why I feel like switching to another manufacturer.
